I've seen this exact problem myself. In my case, I had python 2.4.3
installed in /usr and I installed python 2.5.1 from source in
/usr/local. I don't remember the details, but I played around with
symlinks and made some progress, but ultimately removed python 2.5.1
and reinstalled it in /usr and that solved the problem.
This is not a Mailman problem, It is a Python installation problem. I
think if you just start an interactive Python and type 'import md5'
you'll see the same thing.
